    Back at Cosmo. Thought about staying awake for the open bars but my husband was in the sports book from 7:30am until 6:00pm. He done.
    We are back in the room and watching the final fountain show of the night.
    Going to breakfast in am. It sure where. I am trying to convince them to go to peppermill. Not sure I will get far with that one. We are down for the trip but we had 2 bankrolls since we didn’t spend our April trip bankroll. We continued to add. It has added to our fun. We had heard that Cosmo machines were tight and I think that is a fair assessment. We won faster at Aria and Bellagio. We have had to work for the wins at Cosmo.
    One more full day and night until we leave. [emoji22]. I will make the most of it!

    The wife and I have plans right now to stay at Bellagio Wednesday-Saturday of Thanksgiving. Thoughts about that? Seems like things have been fun and bars opening will be big for us. How was the pool at Cosmo? Did you have to wear a mask in the cabana too? We have a cabana reserved at Circa for a day. Enjoy the last day!!!

    I love Bellagio. It was my “home” casino until about 5 years ago and then it became Cosmo. At Bellagio VP bars they have plexiglass up. So it might seem confined.
    Bellagio was also very clean and mask patrol was out. Not as many scooters either. Cosmo was full of the scooters.
    Yes we were told to wear masks everywhere unless we were eating or drinking or in the pool. Sooo we we’re always eating or drinking or in the shallow part of the pool by our daybed.

    I had hoped to see Circa this trip but time got away from us!
    Have a great time in November!

    I agree with that!
    I don't want to believe Cosmo made an effort to tighten the slot machines on the casino floor.
    But they do have more new/lastest machines than anyone else on the Strip.
    And each time a newer machine replaces a older one, the payback rate decreases a couple of percent or more.

    I'm just catching up with your trip! Some awesome wins! Thanks for all the pics! And looks like The Conservatory display was changed from when I was there 10 days ago. I love the new fall colors! I actually had more luck with the slots at Cosmo than at the Plaza, so you just never know!

    Hi, Best Riches today. Would you happen to know if Enrique is working at the Sportsbar? I have been worried about the staff that I know. I hope he is well and back to work. Have fun today!

    Serious fashion question for you.

    It's been a couple of years since I've been in Vegas in early Fall. Per weather.com, it looks like it will be perfect Vegas weather for my trip (this Thursday until October 11th), with mid to high 90s and sunshine every day.

    Right now I'm packing a fair amount of white clothes (tops and bottoms), some black (but not too much as I can wear black year round) and some color (e.g., soft greens and some pinks/florals). I took out some things that scream "summer" as even though it will be hot in Vegas Fall does indeed start tomorrow (Tuesday). But I'm wondering if I'm planning to pack too many white casual clothes.

    I can't tell from the photos but would you mind sharing what kind of clothes/colors you packed and what you see generally women who are dressed up at night wearing, i.e., more summer (because it is hot) or fall colors?

    I'm going to be pretty casual but I like to dress well in Vegas (so casually elegant) and I have some special dinners lined up when I want to get a bit more dressed up, including Sinatra and Guy Savoy.

    Any advice appreciated.

    Good questions! I overpacked for sure!
    I wore a few black strapless dresses also brought some “summer”dresses but the pool days foiled my plans! I wore one pair of white shorts but I am always afraid of dust and dirt. Even though things are cleaner right now it didn’t compute with me. I wore silver/shiny tank tops and black shorts and skirts. I brought jeans but have only wore one pair!
    I am from humid Florida so this weather is the best! High 90’s and cool low 80’s. No humidity! So I think you will be fine with white/black/florals.

    This is very helpful @Sheil813. Many thanks! I'm also packing a few silver/shiny tops and some soft gray pieces too. And yes, even with a long trip, and checking luggage, and I need to seriously cut down on the clothes, makeup (I'm even worse on how many lipsticks and blushes I need, especially now with mask wearing) and special items I need to bring for my Grand Canyon side trip where it will be cool at night and whites definitely will not do!

    Thanks again and wishing you a fantastic, fun and winning day!

    I am missing the lipstick! Just a tip for you- buy a lip scrub. The dry air and masks have chapped my lips. I am using a sugar scrub on them each morning.

    I am doing ok at small denoms at Cosmo. My husband plays much larger and his hits aren’t as often. He also doesn’t think a $75 hit is worth memorializing! [emoji12]. So I’m not taking as many pics as I could! I am sorry we missed each other!

    Hooray for the multiplier!

    I’m back up in the room packing and eating chips and guacamole I ordered from room service. Watching episodes of Love Island that I’ve missed this week. (Have to have a guilty pleasure amiright?). [emoji23] [emoji1787]
